Viet Nam launched its unemployment insurance (UI) scheme in 2009. The UI scheme insures now more than 8 million workers. The ILO, mainly with the support from the ILO/Japan Multi-bilateral Programme, has provided technical support and capacity building services to the government and social partners to continue improving the scheme.

On the 40th Anniversary of the end of the Vietnam War, the country is still suffering from the conflict that took the lives of 3 million people. In that war, the United States dropped 683, 000 tons of bombs on the country, three times more than in World War II. The war destroyed half the nation’s houses, all infra structure, and the majority of hospitals and schools. Experts say it will take hundreds of years and billions of dollars of investment to locate and clear all the unexploded bombs. Even so, four decades later, Vietnam has recovered economically and boasts a GDP close to US$ 2 billion. Poverty levels have dropped to 11%. Unemployment is negligible. The illiteracy rate is 6%. In Hanoi it is difficult to find a building in ruins, and Vietnam is becoming a regional power. Vincent Montagud reports from Hanoi for teleSUR.

When you hear that the unemployment rate has gone down, you usually think that the economy is doing better. Right?
But the numbers don’t always tell the full story.
This is what’s not said. If someone has gotten so frustrated that they’ve stopped looking for work… or just decided that they won’t work anymore, they no longer get counted as unemployed.
So, imagine you had a town with 100 people, and 10 of them were unemployed and trying to find jobs. The unemployment rate would be 10%. Make sense?
So now imagine if five of those people got tired of looking for jobs and decided to move into their parent’s basement… the government would now say that the unemployment rate has gone down to 5%. Yippee! Wait now…that doesn’t make sense.
The people in the basement are no longer part of the labor force because they’ve given up… so the labor force participation rate goes down too…

"How to Fix the Unemployment problem in the USA" by the Paranoid & Grumpy Vietnam Vet

Should people get unemployment

Hi, my name is Kien I'm from Vietnam. This is for Mr. Hung's English class and question is should people get unemployment?
I think that, yes, people should get unemployment because of the bad economy. There would be so many people without anyway of paying for food, paying for shelter, paying for the things they need without unemployment so it's a very important social service. At the same time, I think the government in Vietnam needs to do more to stimulate the economy so more people can get jobs. In turn fewer people will need unemployment because right now it's a big debate in Vietnam about unemployment benefits, how long they should be and what we should do about the economic and unemployment problems.
Thank you.

When you hear that the unemployment rate has gone down, you usually think that the economy is doing better. Right?
But the numbers don’t always tell the full story.
This is what’s not said. If someone has gotten so frustrated that they’ve stopped looking for work… or just decided that they won’t work anymore, they no longer get counted as unemployed.
So, imagine you had a town with 100 people, and 10 of them were unemployed and trying to find jobs. The unemployment rate would be 10%. Make sense?
So now imagine if five of those people got tired of looking for jobs and decided to move into their parent’s basement… the government would now say that the unemployment rate has gone down to 5%. Yippee! Wait now…that doesn’t make sense.
The people in the basement are no longer part of the labor force because they’ve given up… so the labor force participation rate goes down too…
Not exactly a reason to celebrate.
So while the unemployment rate is important, the labor force participation rate, which as you can see, tells the real story.
Now that makes sense.
Remember this the next time you see a politician on the news talking about the unemployment rate getting better.

Should people get unemployment

Hi, my name is Kien I'm from Vietnam. This is for Mr. Hung's English class and question is should people get unemployment?
I think that, yes, people should get unemployment because of the bad economy. There would be so many people without anyway of paying for food, paying for shelter, paying for the things they need without unemployment so it's a very important social service. At the same time, I think the government in Vietnam needs to do more to stimulate the economy so more people can get jobs. In turn fewer people will need unemployment because right now it's a big debate in Vietnam about unemployment benefits, how long they should be and what we should do about the economic and unemployment problems.
Thank you.

Unemployment insurance in Viet Nam, an experience to be shared

Viet Nam launched its unemployment insurance (UI) scheme in 2009. The UI scheme insures now more than 8 million workers. The ILO, mainly with the support from the ILO/Japan Multi-bilateral Programme, has provided technical support and capacity building services to the government and social partners to continue improving the scheme.

Vietnam: Poverty, Unemployment and Illiteracy Low

On the 40th Anniversary of the end of the Vietnam War, the country is still suffering from the conflict that took the lives of 3 million people. In that war, the United States dropped 683, 000 tons of bombs on the country, three times more than in World War II. The war destroyed half the nation’s houses, all infra structure, and the majority of hospitals and schools. Experts say it will take hundreds of years and billions of dollars of investment to locate and clear all the unexploded bombs. Even so, four decades later, Vietnam has recovered economically and boasts a GDP close to US$ 2 billion. Poverty levels have dropped to 11%. Unemployment is negligible. The illiteracy rate is 6%. In Hanoi it is difficult to find a building in ruins, and Vietnam is becoming a regional power. Vincent Montagud reports from Hanoi for teleSUR.
